Different Hours

The random musings of the owner of a very very small (I mean smaller than what you're thinking...okay a little bigger) Messenger Company

Thus far these are my favorite rationalizations by the neo-cons for the prisoner abuse in Iraq:

Rich Lowery in the National Review blames the loose morals of the country (specifically the lefts I'm sure):

"Then, there is the very fact of the pictures. The American jailers, who live in a country where pornography is a $10 billion-a-year business, became amateur pornographers�If they had done this stateside in different circumstances, they might be very rich and perhaps even up for an Adult Video Award."

Rush Limbaugh says:

"If you look at these pictures, you cannot deny that there are elements of homoeroticism �I've seen things like this on American websites. You can find these if you have the passwords to these various porn sites, you can see things like this."

&

"This is no different than what happens at the Skull and Bones initiation and we're going to ruin people's lives over it and we're going to hamper our military effort, and then we are going to really hammer them because they had a good time� You [ever] heard of [the] need to blow some steam off?"

So you see it's all our fault. Us liberals I mean. We're just fucking up the whole country.
